 </strong> is a Forensic Anthropologist who researches how the human body b
 urns with applications to fatal fire casework. She received her doctorate 
 from the University of Arkansas in 2007 for &ldquo\;The Effects of Fire on
  Human Remains.&rdquo\; Dr. Pope has been a researcher and instructor for 
 the San Luis Obispo Fire Investigation Strike Team (SLO FIST) Fatal Fire D
 eath Investigation Course since 2008 where human cadavers are utilized to 
 recreate fatal fire scenes using structures\, vehicles\, and outdoor fire 
 environments. Dr. Pope specializes in the analysis of traumatic injury and
  its implications for fatal fire investigations along with examining burn 
 patterns of individual casework. Her training courses examine how the huma
 n body is an important type of physical evidence from fatal fire scenes an
 d the value of evidence preservation for fatal fire casework.</p>\n<p><spa
 n>The Fatal Fire Investigation Training Course is a scientific approach to
  how the human body burns in different types of fire scenes (structures\, 
 vehicles\, confined space\, and outdoors) for Law Enforcement\, Fire Inves
 tigators\, and Medicolegal Investigators. Training is derived from over a 
 decade of experimental burn research with human cadavers in a variety of f
 ire environments that are routinely encountered in forensic casework. The 
 heat-related changes of the human body (burn damage and pugilistic positio
 ning) are presented along with the types of physical evidence that survive
 s for investigators at the fatal fire scene.&nbsp\;</span><br />\nFatal Fi
 re Investigation Training Course Topics:<br />\n&bull\;Introduction to nor
 mal burn patterns and heat related changes of the body during a fire.<br /
 >\n&bull\;Normal heat-related changes for the arms\, legs\, torso\, and he
 ad (natural stages of burning to full cremation) and their appearance/cond
 ition after the fire.<br />\n&bull\;Heat-related changes of preexisting tr
 aumatic injury from gunshot wounds\, blunt force trauma\, and sharp force 
 trauma in burned human remains.<br />\n&bull\;Experimental case examples o
 f vehicle fires\, structure fires\, outdoor fires\, the use of ignitable l
 iquids\, and criminal attempts to destroy physical evidence of the body.<b
 r />\n&bull\;Effects of suppression\, post-fire changes to the body\, and 
 problems with improper handling of fragile burned human remains/evidence f
 rom the scene.<br />\n&bull\;Fatal fire scene documentation\, evidence han
 dling\, the autopsy\, and methods of victim identification from bodies tha
 t were &lsquo\;burned beyond recognition&rsquo\;.</p>\n<p><strong></strong
